#440 Miracle 1rst, Emotions 2nd

Shep Gordon's life is unbelievable. It really is-if you don't believe me, just check out his book and documentary, "They call me Supermensch." Gordon's story starts off like most rags to riches stories. Busted and a loser, Gordon takes off to the west coast with a suitcase full of drugs in hopes that something...anything will be different than his life thus far. After checking into a sleazebag motel, Shep wakes up to a woman screaming and when he goes to save her, he finds it's the legendary Janice Joplin getting it on! Shortly thereafter Joplin introduces Shep to her friends...Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison of "The Doors," and just like that, Gordon transitioned from their drug dealer to their music manager. Gordon's gone on to represent a buffet of talent over his long career. Today, you'll find Shep hosting dinner parties at his palatial mansion overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The parties aren't for networking, they're just a collection of great (famous) friends all brought together to celebrate life. Gordon has even cooked for the Dalai Lama! (I told you it's a crazy story!) He said when His Holiness walks into a room, he looks for the miracle first and the emotion second. ~~Just think how your life would be different if you put the miracle before your emotion. To see how far you've come...to be grateful... to see the miracle first, THEN productively handle the emotion. All of the pissed off, jealous, blow ups, and angry outbursts could've been handled more productively. ~~I'm rolling with you on this week's edition of TSL! ^^^Don't forget to share the show ^^^& please thumb a quick rating and review so that others can join TSL Nation too! ^^^^I'm on IG, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn @marshbuice and thesaleslife!@gmail.com
